A fierce palm wind struck, but Jiang Ningwan raised his eyes calmly, his eyes slightly cold.

A clear voice rang out slowly, "I promised my mother today that I would go to Huichun Hall to have a talk tomorrow."

"General, if you want the people of Huichun Hall to see the injuries on my face, then go ahead and do it."

There was a hint of menace in her calm tone.

Facing Qin Beihuang, who was filled with anger and murderous intent, she straightened her back without any fear.

That calm expression gave Qin Beihuang a strong sense of oppression.

Jiang Ningwan has changed!

In the letters from her mother over the past two years, she said that Jiang Ningwan was gentle, virtuous, and hardworking.

But the Jiang Ningwan in front of him was so powerful that even he, a general who had fought on many battlefields, could not suppress him.

Looking at Qin Beihuang's furious yet patient expression, Jiang Ningwan slowly raised the corners of her lips.

In the end, Qin Beihuang withdrew his hand, "Jiang Ningwan, filial piety comes first among all virtues."

"You shouldn't force me to take my mother's life. This will only make me hate you even more."

"Are you still the Jiang Ningwan I know?"

Qin Beihuang's tone was disappointed.

Jiang Ningwan looked at him seriously, "General, do you still remember what you said when you came to ask for my hand in marriage two years ago?"

"You said I'm straightforward and don't have the airs of a rich lady. I'm different from all the women in the world."

"I said, a girl from the Jiang family will only marry someone who loves her."

"You swear immediately that you will only marry me in this life."

Qin Beihuang looked a little embarrassed when he heard this, and immediately interrupted her: "I did say that, but you are no longer the same as before."

Jiang Ningwan smiled, "I have to remind the general of cause and effect. The one who changed his heart and broke his oath was you."

"Before you blame me, General, you should reflect on yourself first!"

Hearing this, Qin Beihuang's red face was covered with veins, "Nonsense!"

"I did ask for your hand in marriage, but I had no intention of marrying you before I left for the war. It was your Duke's Mansion that begged me to marry you!"

"The Ling family was exiled, and your Duke's Mansion was almost implicated. In those times of crisis, I agreed to this marriage and married you."

"Two years after going on the expedition, I realized how unfair it was to Qingheng when I rashly agreed to marry him. I broke my promise, but Jiang Ningwan, I don't owe you anything!"

Those four resounding words made Jiang Ningwan feel ridiculous.

The General's Mansion can never repay what it owes her!

"If my grandfather hadn't been exiled, would you still be able to say such things, General?"

It's nothing more than an excuse to change your mind and break your oath.

They were anxious to get married back then, but no one forced Qin Beihuang.

Qin Beihuang looked displeased, "Unfortunately there is no if!"

"This is the last time I'll try to reason with you in a gentle manner. I hope you won't stir up trouble again."

After saying that, Qin Beihuang stormed out of the door in anger.

The door slammed.

Li Chun then entered the room and poured her a cup of tea with concern. "General Qin's words were really too much. Miss, please don't be sad..."

Jiang Ningwan smiled faintly, "I've already given up on him, why should I be sad?"

Li Chun was puzzled, "Then Miss will go to Huichun Hall tomorrow?"

Jiang Ningwan raised the corner of her lips slightly, "Go, of course I have to go."

Jinhua Residence.

The cold was getting heavier and the weather was gloomy. Before I even stepped into the room, I heard Princess Yi coughing.

After the headache came, I seemed to have caught a cold.

Qin Beihuang and Lu Qingheng were both serving by the bed and had been waiting for Jiang Ningwan for a long time.

When Princess Yi saw Jiang Ningwan, she immediately smiled and sat up. "Ningwan, are you back from Huichun Hall?"

Jiang Ningwan nodded and sat down on the chair.

"What did Huichuntang say?" Qin Beihuang asked urgently.

Jiang Ningwan spoke slowly, "Huichuntang said that they do have a Tianshan Buddha Lotus there."

Hearing this, Qin Beihuang felt relieved.

Princess Yi was also delighted and quickly praised: "Ning Wan is really capable. It seems that you have to take care of all the matters of the General's Mansion."

Jiang Ningwan chuckled. As long as she gave in a little, they would become more aggressive.

He also wanted to hand over the housekeeping power to her.

Let her pay for the renovation of Xuanwei General’s Mansion.

Qin Beihuang was also in a very good mood. "Where are the herbs? Quickly have someone boil the medicine. Mother has had a headache for two days and her health is getting worse."

Jiang Ningwan said calmly, "The medicinal materials are naturally in Huichuntang."

Qin Beihuang frowned and asked, "Then why don't you take it back on the way?"

It's really justified.

Jiang Ningwan raised her hand, and Li Chun handed her an account book. She slowly opened it and spoke softly.

"Huichuntang said they won't charge my mother for her medical treatment over the past two years, but they used a total of twenty-five Tianshan Buddha Lotus plants and a large amount of medicinal herbs. This bill needs to be settled."

"The General's Mansion will first pay back the medicine fees for the past two years, and then they can sell the remaining Tianshan Buddha Lotus to us for five hundred taels to solve our urgent needs."

"Here are the accounts."

When these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked.

It was the first time they heard that they had to pay for using medicinal materials from their own clinic.

Although it was not something that was made public, everyone knew that Huichun Hall was Jiang Ningwan's dowry.

Qin Beihuang stepped forward and took a look at the account book. His brows furrowed tighter and tighter. When he saw the total at the end, his expression suddenly changed. "Thirty-two thousand three hundred and fifty taels?"

Princess Yi was so shocked that she almost couldn't breathe, "What! Thirty thousand cough cough cough cough..."

Lu Qingheng quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "Mother's health is the most important thing, don't get excited."

After saying that, she turned to look at Jiang Ningwan, "I'll be frank, so I'll be frank. Is this money for Huichuntang or you?"

Jiang Ningwan looked at her in confusion, "What? So your sister never pays for medicine when she's sick?"

As soon as Qin Beihuang's expression changed, Jiang Ningwan looked him in the face. "Or did you never pay for the medicine for your injuries, General?"

"you!"

Lu Qingheng said in a cold tone: "Don't beat around the bush, we all know that Huichuntang is your clinic."

"It's simply because I married into the General's Mansion that you deliberately stopped the medicine at Huichuntang, and now you're forcing me by bringing up the thirty thousand taels bill."

"What do you want? Do you want the General to divorce me?"

Before Jiang Ningwan could say anything, Qin Beihuang immediately protected Lu Qingheng, looked at Jiang Ningwan with dissatisfaction, and said firmly -

"If only one of you and Qingheng can stay in this family, it must be Qingheng!"

"Jiang Ningwan, stop doing these meaningless things."

Jiang Ningwan was speechless.

If it was really meaningless, they wouldn't be arguing here.

Even if he took thirty thousand taels to the emperor, he would not say it was meaningless.

"You've said so much, but your words and deeds show that you don't want to repay this debt, and you still want Huichuntang to provide medicinal materials for free."

"Eat and take, and then turn around and step on others."

"Huichuntang is not a fool."

Qin Beihuang's face turned ashen as he tried hard to suppress his anger.

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense and depressing, Princess Yi had no choice but to step in personally and pull Qin Beihuang to sit down beside the bed.

"Ning Wan, they're both dumb and can't talk. It's not what you think."

"Everyone is a little surprised. Isn't Huichuntang our own clinic? Why are we charging for the herbs we used?"

Your own clinic?

How nice of you.

Jiang Ningwan raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Even brothers should settle accounts openly."

"What's more, Huichuntang's surname is Ling, not Jiang, and certainly not Qin!"
